I've heard they're pretty shite and the company is going out of business.

Apparently the area tha quicktrack monitors is pretty poor, some say its a triangle in the city centre of sydney and thats about it.

Thats just what ive heard so take it with a grain of salt.

And

I have not used any of them and don't know much about them. But if you do end up buying one I'd be curious to opinions :thumbsup:

Hi kgangulw,

I am an authorised installer of Quik Trak's. DONT BUY ONE!

Quik track is a fair alarm system, if you live work and only ever travel within its coverage zones.

For a better product, check out the car minder system, it works on GSM technology, which means depending on the sim card you put in it the coverage will be huge. ( a lot larger than quik track will ever be)

You will also save on the monitoring fees because you will only be paying for a sim card. I usually recommend something like a cheap optus/voda plan. Telstra SUCK!

You will get similar functions to a quiktrack but you will have access to it from any phone on the planet.

EG - car is stolen with your mobile phone in the console

- go to phone box

- call car

- shut down motor

- get gps position

- recover car

Easy, Just make sure the people putting in the system know what they are doing.

Please note, i do not work for either carminder, quiktrack or Cobra, I am just referring you to a better product.

pj,

I'm going to play devils addvocate here ( and yes I'm a dealer also.)

what say I find a nice 33 and have a GSM jammer handy? that is going to kill the GSM side of the unit long enough for me to find it ( if its tucked under the dash) and turf it. welll installed - not a problem I'll move on.

I like the quicktrak system for one reason- you cannot jam it. you are correct onthe downfalls though range is great if youare in the coverage area.

I know of another system that is GSM based you you can track yourself but I have yet to lay hands on it or try my 'toy' on it so I cannot comment.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
